People always say that when you find the love of your life, you just know. It's effortless conversation, chemistry, and a mutual respect for the other's hopes and dreams. We may not think these are things our pets feel, but two Golden Retrievers are proving they do-and what they did next is beyond cute!

The rumors are true-Brew and Zola got hitched after just three dates! The devoted Golden Retriever pair had a full-glam wedding complete with doggy guests all dolled up. Flowers, treats, and a minister made the lovebirds' "situationship" official.

There wasn't a dry eye in the house, obviously. Before the big day, there may have only been three dates total, but sparks flew, so there had to be a proposal. If you think @brewthegoldenn was about to do this without a ring, you're going to want to see the "rock" he gave his sweetheart.

Brew couldn't be any more precious as he nervously waited for his girlfriend so he could pop the question that would change the rest of their lives. The gigantic ring (a stuffie) puts most of our engagement rings to shame, and Zola looks good wearing it.

It's a good thing @zola.the.goldenn said yes because Brew is one smitten boy! Fellas, take notes!

How To Host a Dog Wedding

While dogs can't legally get married, that doesn't mean you can't host a wedding, anyway! By choosing a pet-friendly place like a dog park or venue with plenty of outdoor area to roam, your pup can invite all their friends and even pick their bride and groom parties to stand beside them!

For the "bow-wow vows," you can recite something as an unofficial "minister" as the two dogs walk down an aisle. The bride can sport a beautiful gown like Zola's, and of course, the handsome gent should come in their best tuxedo (even a cute bandana works).

Throw in all the cute decorations, dog-friendly party foods (cake!), and then hire a photographer to capture all the special moments, and you have yourself a certified dog wedding of the year.

If ever there was a reason to celebrate, it's this. Congrats to the newlyweds!
